While the former version 0.9.2a (40210) worked without any change,
the new 0.9.3b (41156) gives
"Running Jupiter Hell"
and aborts without error when invoked via "./start.sh" under Linux
(not depending on version) - same as running it directly.
One just needs:
sudo chmod guo+x game/jh
which is also indicated by "cat game/err.log".
I am not sure if it is up to the Devs or to GOG,
but not even trying to start a game is a little bit ... strange.
Concerning Vulkan a conformant support is needed, e.g. requiring Mesa 20.0 for AMD Navi 10
(aka Radeon RX 5700 XT), i.e. for HW with lacking support OpenGL is to be chosen ...
Similar to other games ... like Filaments etc.
===
* Same problem for version 0.9.4 (41586) ... that's really crazy ... no one invokes the game - no QA?
I am not sure if GOG or the developers are to be contacted - due to start script is invoked I contacted GOG support right now ... maybe it gets explained who is responsible to change the right in the install script.
~~~
* The support was fast with a 1st reply and will contact its Product Team
and asked me to inform the developers, too.
I just wrote that mail so I hope this problem is soon fixed for future version of Jupiter Hell.
~~~
* The binary has now automatically executive rights with fresh version 0.9.4 (41941) delivered on 14. Oct. 2020.
